Introduction
As consultants in the Electronic Medical Record Software industry, we've seen our fair-share of both successful implementations and failed implementations. With a record number of physicians trading in their paper charts for its paperless counterpart, the healthcare industry in general is still decades behind the rest of the nation’s industries when it comes to automation through technology. There are a number of reasons for this, including a lack of quality solutions, lack of incentives from governing bodies and simply a dependence on an outdated way of doing things. However, EMR software solutions have greatly improved in the past years, with a number of companies leading the way in innovation. Still, with over 200 software vendors in the market, selecting the right EMR can be a daunting task. Unfortunately, there is no "Silver Bullet" contrary to what many will tell you as no two practices are alike. Carefully evaluating your needs and goals and setting forth a plan is crucial if you wish to see your implementation succeed.
